The CIA designed and manufactured this two-man semi-submersible in the 1950s. The 19-foot-long craft was made of wood and aluminum, with plywood sheathing on the bottom, sides, and deck, making sonar or radar detection unlikely. When running in the "deck awash" position, it was almost impossible to see.
